Freedom Township, Blair County, PA
Freedom Police Department & Blair County Coroners Office.

Help demand a full investigation into Charlie's passing.
This petition may contain some upsetting/graphic information but is necessary to help you understand the urgency of this situation.

The case was quickly ruled as 'self-inflicted' the same night, September 4th 2024, despite the presence of 'two external causes of death'. 
A highly unusual and suspicious scenario. 
Shockingly, the Coroners Office and Police department failed to conduct essential forensic testing such as an autopsy, gunshot residue analysis OR toxicology. The absence of critical forensic tests leaves significant gaps in the investigation & the lack of these standard investigative procedures raises serious red flags and concerns.  

The Narrative Report given to the Ray family states that State Police were called to 'rule out a homicide' due to an ongoing investigation. 
This statement was discovered to be false. State Police confirmed they were never informed of any investigations nor called to investigate for a potential homicide. 

Crucial evidence of the scene was overlooked and critical information was omitted from this report. The family has only received a narrative report from Blair County Coroners Office. 
This report has no name nor signature included.
The majority of this report contains false information.

Some Important information to know:

-Officer Aaron Artz, on scene that day was 'terminated' with Freedom Township Police approximately 1 month after the incident.
The reason for his departure with the department remains unknown and undisclosed despite A Right to Know Request for this information.

-Aaron Artz arrived at an unknown time and 'searched' the property with no warrant, although he claimed on this report he had a warrant.

-Aaron Artz lied about WHY & HOW he found Charlie. Stating on this report he could see him through a window.
There are no windows on scene.

-Evidence was purposely omitted by both the Coroners Office and Freedom Township Police.

-Further evidence has been withheld and tampered with.

This is more urgent than ever. 
Please re-share and grab the attention of higher officials.
Unfortunately I cannot list all of the information but please help continue pushing for more answers!
Hold these departments accountable and help the Ray family receive a proper investigation, answers and JUSTICE for Charlie!
